https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spider_silk
All spiders produce silks, and a single spider can produce up to seven different types of silk for different uses.
One type is the balloon or parachute silk =O:

(I had forgotten about this thread :o0ps: )

My common name comes from my behavior.
Flowers are my friends.
Patience is one of my virtues.
Once you get to know me better, I might seem rather ghoulish. :twisted:
